American comic book: Start as a corpse collector, choose to cultivate immortality with technology

The Mother Box trembled incessantly on the stone pillar at the center of the bunker.

After taking several deep breaths, a dark-skinned Amazonian warrior quickly approached.

However, just as the Amazon warrior was about to touch the Mother Box, an incomparably powerful spatial force quickly rippled through the bunker, forming a massive spatial passage that stretched from heaven to earth.

Accompanied by an annoying buzzing sound, hordes of alien demons quickly swarmed out of the spatial passage, wielding energy guns, and confronted the Amazon warriors in the bunker.

boom!

As the standoff reached its conclusion, a tall figure made a dramatic entrance, kneeling on one knee.

"It really is the mother box!"

"Master, I will surely collect all the Mother Boxes and send the whole world away..."

Steppenwolf makes his appearance, spouting non-stop witty remarks. He's completely manipulated, acting like a fanatic. Even from across the vast universe, he has to first praise Darkseid and express his loyalty.

Damn it, you're crazy!

Hippolyta naturally noticed Steppenwolf's presence immediately. After cursing inwardly, she subtly gave the Amazon warrior a look.

Immediately afterwards, the Amazon warrior gripped the Mother Box tightly and threw it toward Hippolyta.

"Stop this idiot! Seal off the bunker!"

After obtaining the Mother Box, Hippolyta gave the Steppenwolf a disdainful look, then turned and strode confidently towards the outside of the bunker...

Unlike the sentimental, childish battles depicted in movies and comics.

As a queen of an immortal race who has lived for tens of thousands of years and experienced countless real wars, Hippolyta will not hesitate or waver in the slightest during battle; her heart is colder than a knife that has been used to kill fish for 30 years at RT-Mart.

For victory, for achieving her goal, Hippolyta wouldn't even blink an eye at the cost of sacrificing a hundred or so warriors in the bunker.

The Amazons were originally a warrior race created by Zeus.

Battle, slaughter, sacrifice, and victory are commonplace for the Amazons, who regard them as the most important meaning and honor in life.

Steppenwolf never expected that the other party would give him such a big gift right from the start.

Before they could even finish their entrance lines, almost instantly, more than twenty Amazon warriors, wielding swords and spears, charged directly at Steppenwolf, completely surrounding him.

Amazonian women are in no way inferior to the Asgardians in terms of physical fitness.

To put it bluntly, any Amazonian woman could punch someone so hard they'd be begging Captain America not to die.

Such power (1 or 2) is obviously insufficient to deal with a creature like the Steppenwolf.

However, simply surrounding them and holding them off for a while would not be a problem at all.

While the Steppenwolf roared and struggled, knocking away all the female warriors who pounced on him, Hippolyta strode out of the long tunnel.

Following Hippolyta, a full twenty powerful Amazonian female warriors swung their enormous iron warhammers, completely destroying the supports and mechanisms within the tunnel and bunker.

As the stone gates of the passageway descended in layers.

In less than ten breaths, the entire massive bunker began to collapse, carrying thousands of tons of buildings, boulders, and soil down the cliff to be submerged by the surging waves.

Chapter 698 Steppenwolf's First Attempt Fails, Zod's Tricks Abound

On Paradise Island, at the edge of a cliff.

Hippolyta, clad in magnificent armor and a cloak, stood on the edge of the cliff, her eyes utterly unmoved as she watched the bunker plunge into the deep sea.

at the same time.

Led by Antiop, the thunderous roar of warhorses came from afar.

A communications soldier took the lead, arriving at the edge of the cliff early. He swiftly flipped down and knelt before Hippolyta, saying, "Your Majesty, General Antiop has led his army to assemble, and Princess Diana has also received the news and will arrive soon."

Hippolyta merely nodded slightly upon hearing this, her expressionless gaze fixed silently on the spatial passage above the ocean.

The spatial passage remained, and even the Mother Box in Hippolyta's hands continued to tremble.

All of this indicates that the Steppenwolf was not dead.

Of course, Hippolyta never expected that such a small trick could kill a vanguard general of the 31st superpower of the universe.

If Steppenwolf could be tricked to death like this, Darkseid wouldn't have bothered to manipulate him into becoming a number one debtor and a fanatic.

The sinking of the bunker was only meant to buy a few minutes of time; it wasn't even an appetizer.

as predicted.

Just as Hippolyta came to her senses and mounted her horse...

A silver-white figure shot up from the deep sea like a cannonball, soaring hundreds of meters into the air, and crashed down like a meteorite.

boom!

A cloud of dust rose as more than dozens of Amazonian warriors, along with their horses, were smashed to pieces.

But the good thing is.

At this time, Antiop had already led his army to the plains by the sea. Thousands of cavalrymen were all skilled in archery and horsemanship. While running, they drew their bows and drew their arrows, constantly focusing their fire and charging at the wasteland wolves.

These Amazonian female warriors were completely unable to inflict any real damage on the steppe wolf.

But this relentless charge was enough to completely keep the wasteland wolf pinned to the spot.

However, this numerical advantage did not last long.

As the wasteland wolves slaughtered their way through the land, more and more demonic armies began to emerge from the spatial passage in the sky, clashing fiercely with the Amazonian army.

After losing the advantage in numbers.

The idle Amazon warriors' charge was no longer enough to stop the Steppenwolves' upstream advance.

at the same time.

After passing through the gathering of the army, Hippolyta soon saw Diana coming from the portal of the Amazon Palace.

"Mother!"

“Diana, you’ve come at the right time. Darkseid’s vanguard has arrived. This is one-third of the Mother Box that we sealed away from Darkseid thousands of years ago. Take the Mother Box and leave as soon as possible.”

"No, Mother, Steppenwolf is no match for me, not even Darkseid..."

“Diana, the existence of the Mother Box will provide a continuous source of energy to the spatial passage. Even if we kill Steppenwolf, the army of Otherworlders is endless. Even our fallen kin will be transformed into Otherworlders by the energy of the Mother Box. I need you to take the Mother Box away, find Raine, and reseal the Mother Box.”

Hippolyta's words were forceful and carried an unquestionable authority.

Even though Diana's abilities had greatly improved and she was even on par with her mother when her mother was angry, she dared not utter the slightest rebuttal.

Even so, after taking a look at the battlefield...

Diana, still somewhat displeased, said, "I will avenge the sisters who died in the war!"

After saying this, Diana could only accept the Mother Box and leave through the portal once again.

After the Mother Box was taken away from Paradise Island.

Without the supply of energy from the Mother Box, the spatial passage on Paradise Island began to gradually become illusory and unstable.

Steppenwolf's attack was unsuccessful from the start. He quickly let out a furious roar and slammed his battle axe into the ground with extreme ferocity, creating an energy blast of magma and fire that sent hundreds of Amazon warriors flying. Then, extremely unwilling, he summoned the spatial portal again and left.

Taking the Mother Box is a mission Steppenwolf must complete.

However, there are many strong individuals on Earth, and their strength is not weak.

Without the power of the Mother Box, Steppenwolf is no match for Diana at this point. He can only proceed with the easier tasks first, aiming to seize the other two Mother Boxes. Once he receives the two waves of power from the Mother Boxes, he will then try to reclaim the Mother Box from Diana.

Just as Steppenwolf intensified his operations and shifted his target to the underwater Atlantis.

In space at this moment.

Negotiations between Carol and Clark and Zod and other Kryptonian survivors have completely broken down.

Zod and the others only had a superficial cooperation with Thanos; they each had their own calculations in their hearts.

However, it cannot be ignored that if Zod and the others want to rebuild Krypton, they must obtain the Codex of Life from Clark's body.

The Codex of Life is the pinnacle of Krypton's genetic technology over the past 100,000 years. It contains the gene pool of all Kryptonians and is the foundation for Krypton's ability to rapidly cultivate talent and develop.

Besides being a Kryptonian gene bank, the Codex Life is also a Kryptonian artifact.

Only Kryptonian lifeforms created and nurtured through the Codex of Life can unlock their latent genes, be powered by the red and yellow suns, evolve, and develop extraordinary abilities such as biological force, steel body, God's heart, heat vision, and icy breath.

Without the Codex of Life, even the offspring of Kryptonian men and women, conceived naturally, would be unable to embark on the path of evolution.

However, if the Codex of Life is extracted from Clark's body, Clark himself will only face death.

Without a doubt, this is an irreconcilable contradiction.

Once the conflict fully erupts, the only outcome between the two sides will be a matter of life and death.

Zod was also incredibly shrewd. After stalling for enough time, not only did Zod himself break through to the Skyfather level, but even Fiora beside him evolved to the peak of the Sub-Skyfather level.

The other Kryptonian remnants, including the ordinary soldiers and engineers inside the Kryptonian spaceship, have all undergone a complete evolution, each of them now comparable to the Hulk, Thor, and the like.

A major battle broke out suddenly, almost without warning.

Zod went straight for Carol, and with his incredibly strong war instincts, even though he had just entered the Skyfather level, he was extremely difficult to deal with and was able to hold Carol back.

The remaining members, including Fiora, swarmed forward, exerting absolute pressure on Clark.
